Chapter 830 (1/2)

Chapter 830: 830

Leng Yueyan’s sapphire eyes released endless killing intent . Her sword slashed down mercilessly while her terrifying aura caused the world to quiver in fear .

“Split the Heavens 2!” Long Chen also shouted, his spiritual yuan raging through eighteen acupuncture points .

BOOM!

It was like a collision of stars . A blinding light erupted and endless runes were blown apart . Long Chen was appalled . Leng Yueyan was too terrifying . This attack had sent Long Chen flying, and he almost coughed up blood .

Just at that moment, Leng Yueyan practically teleported beside him and stabbed her sword at his chest at an extremely tricky angle .

“What?!” Long Chen was appalled . What kind of monster was Leng Yueyan? How could she not have been affected by the shockwave of their attacks and could still unleash another attack?

But then seeing Leng Yueyan’s movement art, he suddenly realized it was a bit familiar .

“The Netherworld Ghost Steps?!”

BOOM!

Long Chen instinctively blocked with Flying Rainbow, just barely escaping that bone sword’s fatal attack .

“You know the Netherworld Ghost Steps?”

This was Leng Yueyan’s first time showing any emotion . She was clearly shocked he could shout out her movement art’s name . But that shock only lasted for the blink of an eye before she returned to her icy, apathetic self . She once more attacked Long Chen .

This time, her movement art appeared even more demonic and ephemeral . When she first swung her sword, she was to Long Chen’s left, but in the middle of the attack, her sword suddenly appeared to Long Chen’s right . In the end, when the sword was about to strike him, it appeared behind him .

Long Chen instinctively slashed his sword behind him without even looking . He perfectly blocked the bone sword .

From that one exchange, Long Chen confirmed Leng Yueyan was using the Netherworld Ghost Steps . But her Netherworld Ghost Steps was of a much, much higher level than the one he had learned .

He was barely able to see some clues based on the way she moved and the change in her aura . If it hadn’t been for his own experience with the Netherworld Ghost Steps, which allowed him to see through some of her movements, there would have been no way for him to block her practically ghost-like attack from the back .

“f.u.c.k, that d.a.m.n old ghost was definitely holding back and only taught me some superficial nonsense,” cursed Long Chen .

In truth, Long Chen had wrongly blamed Gui Sha . It wasn’t that he hadn’t wanted to teach him this higher level technique, but that his own status wasn’t high enough in the Corrupt path to learn it . He had only had the qualifications to learn that level of Netherworld Ghost Steps .

It had to be known that the Netherworld Ghost Steps was an extremely famous technique in the Corrupt path . To be able to learn even the first superficial level of it was already an immense honor, and It was all thanks to that superficial level that Long Chen was able to see through Leng Yueyan’s ghost-like attack .

Long Chen became covered in thunderforce as he activated the Lightning Body Blink . The two of them pushed their speed to their peaks as they underwent an intense battle .

One was ghost-like and ephemeral, while one was like rus.h.i.+ng lightning . Their two figures moved so quickly that it was impossible to track them with the naked eye .

Sword Qi filled the sky . It was practically impossible to see their figures anymore . It was a true compet.i.tion of speed .

Long Chen was growing more and more shocked . This Leng Yueyan’s power just kept coming . It was no wonder Xue You would be so afraid of her . Each one of her attacks was fierce and vicious, with no room for compromise .

Furthermore, each one of her moves had clearly been tempered through hundreds and thousands of battles . Her battle experience was shockingly profound .

They exchanged almost a thousand blows . Because they were so fast, it only took an incense stick’s worth of time . But within these thousand exchanges, Long Chen wasn’t able to find the slightest mistake in any of her moves .

That didn’t mean that her moves were perfect, as there wasn’t anything truly perfect in this world . It was just that all her moves linked up to the next, so any openings were made up for . Furthermore, with her rapid attacks and movement, even Long Chen was only barely able to see those openings . But he wasn’t able to find any opportunity to counterattack .

“You’re very powerful . Unfortunately, you’re unable to release your power . Your movements are too clumsy . If you didn’t have such shocking combat instincts, you’d have long since died to my sword . But even so, you have no chance of victory . In less than an hour, you’ll die to my sword . Even if you have any powerful moves, you won’t be able to use them . ” Leng Yueyan suddenly opened her mouth, but her sword didn’t slow down at all .

Long Chen snorted and didn’t reply . That was because there was nothing to say . Her words weren’t the slightest bit wrong . He wasn’t able to release any of his power against her .

Although Flying Rainbow was a Treasure item, it was too light, and it wasn’t able to release his true power . His fight with Leng Yueyan was basically a compet.i.tion of swords, and so he was naturally at an immense disadvantage .

Right now, he was simply doing his best to endure . But he definitely couldn’t continue like this for long . Leng Yueyan was a terrifying killer, and her combat experience wasn’t any less than his own .

To release a powerful move against such an expert, it would require an opportunity . That was an extremely large problem for Long Chen now . No matter how strong his techniques were, if he was unable to release them, they wouldn't have any effect .

Long Chen had already activated his divine ring and brought himself to his peak state . But Leng Yueyan had also released her full power, and they seemed evenly matched . However, Long Chen knew that if they continued like this, his defeat was inevitable .

Leng Yueyan’s eyes were too monstrous . Although she wasn’t necessarily able to see through everything about him, she had still sensed several of his habits and weaknesses . She had seen through the fact that he wasn’t used to using a sword, and her plan was to use that to kill him with the smallest price .

Suddenly, countless golden runes appeared around Long Chen . Leng Yueyan’s first thought was that Long Chen was preparing to release some kind of powerful move, but when she clearly saw what those golden runes were, she was startled .
